NE/SE 50s
Bikeway Project

From City
of Portland: The 50s
Bikeway is a 4.3-mile, next generation bikeway project that is part of
the Portland Bicycle Plan for 2030, and includes eight arterial
crossing improvements to increase pedestrian safety. It will create a
north-south safety corridor that connects eight east side neighborhoods
from Rose City Park, through Mt. Tabor and down to Woodstock. Within a
quarter mile are 19,600 residents and within a half mile are 12 schools
and seven parks.

From
NorthTabor.org:
"The history
of our neighborhood has its beginnings at the very earliest date of
Portland’s development, growing rapidly from the late 1800s
and
into the early 1900s. The area was originally considered part of
“North Mount Tabor”, and was predominantly
farmland. The
second phase of development soon followed, with the construction of the
Mount Tabor Villa streetcar line, which served our area and what was
later renamed as the Montavilla area. This streetcar line, which ran
along Glisan from about NE 28th to east of NE 82nd, was originally
constructed in 1892, and quickly triggered a lot of in-fill
development, particularly in the areas closest to the streetcar line."
